Contemporary Concepts in Toxicology (CCT) Meetings

There are no scheduled Contemporary Concepts in Toxicology (CCT) meetings. Effective June 2022, only proposals for CCT webinars should be submitted and will be considered by the Collaborative Conferences Committee. The information on this web page will be updated when submissions for face-to-face CCT meeting proposals begin again.

About CCT Meetings

Currently on hiatus, Contemporary Concepts in Toxicology (CCT) meetings are one- to two-day focused, open registration, scientific meetings in contemporary and rapidly progressing areas of toxicological sciences. CCT meetings may be held as satellites to the SOT Annual Meeting and ToxExpo, Specialty Section, or Regional Chapter meetings or may be held independently. Meetings also may be held virtually. The intent of the CCT meetings is to provide a forum for dissemination and discussion of those developments that are likely to have the greatest importance for advancing the science of toxicology. In order to maintain the quality standards of the Society, only meetings in which SOT maintains scientific and administrative control will be considered as CCT meetings.

While face-to-face meetings are on hiatus, proposals for CCT webinars will be entertained by the Collaborative Conferences Committee. Consult the “How to Propose and Plan a CCT Event” web page and review this sample proposal for more information on how to submit a CCT webinar for consideration.
